My first time using it personally i think its wonderful my brother doesn't like it

I have trouble knitting because of a hand injury but this helps me be able to create things with less pain. I love it

I have never done any type of yarn work before but at the age of 38 the wife and I found this at a craft store and are making scarfs for each other. Simple and enjoyable to use so far.

Perfect for my visually impaired adult daughter who has always wanted to knit or crochet but is unable to.

Has she tried loom knitting. I'm legally blind and find loom knitting to be much easier for me and on my eyes :)

I don’t know why all the negative comments. I made a yellow and white blanket for my granddaughter and used 10 skeins and it came out beautiful. I don’t know how to knit. It was pretty fast and very easy.

bought some of this at the fabric store because i've wanted to try my hand at knitting/crocheting but i could never get it to look right and i'm about a quarter of the way through making myself a giant blanket in just one night. love this yarn so much!!

I find crochet/knitting to be a massive pita so this is right up my alley

I love this mainly for scarves

Omg...that's so cute and easy. I can't crochet for s... This I can do. Thank you for sharing ❤️

Me ayudaste muchísimo GRACIAS 😊

I bought this at the store not even knowing what it was I was going to use it for something completely different. Then I read the package by accident and saw that u can make a hat or a scarf with ur hands. Made a real cool looking hat and it didn’t take long at all. Idk what’s up with the old ladies hating on it

I was confused as some of the other posters here until I watched the video. I found a simple pillow pattern, which is nothing more than two squares, looks cushy and soft, delightful. I have also thought, what a nice bath rug this would make. The yarn itself is on sale now which would make it more affordable. Looks fun and fast to work. I think kids would love it.

I think that the pillows turn out great! I was able to make one in 30 minutes! :)

I am a crocheter from the age of 7( almost 52 now) self-taught knitter, tatting, embroidery, plus many other means of artistry. I got 4 skeins/balls of this as a gift and made a wonderful baby blanket out of it for my grandson. Would I pay 10 bucks a skein/ball? Heck no, but he loves the feel of it, and is holding up quite well. Just figured I'd give some input from someone who actually has tried/made something with it.

I bought a few of these in crayons colors, $3.00 a skein at JoAnns, for my little grandkids. They love them and now they are learning to finger knit and loom knit. The soft, fluffy & colorful loops have made it fun for them and ignited a desire to learn how to make more useful things without the loops, but working with the loops showed them they could do it!

My daughter had me order this because she wants to make her own blanket. She has tons of stuff I made for her. She thinks it's fun.

Innovative! I can see this becoming as popular as the lacy scarf. Thing is the lacy scarf is now yesterday's news because of poor marketing. What is needed is a few free videos of sweaters / hats or and/and maybe some assurances as to durability.

Well, I do not knit very good (slowest speed) so this made a hat with 1 ball in 30 minutes. Looks just like a knitted hat and feels soft and warm too! Every craft has some type of draw back, but have fun and make something! Use new materials ( Waite for sales, clearance, use cuponds) I crochet, weave, tat, cross stitch too!

I think this would be good for children, or maybe someone no longer able to hold a hook.

Good for young kids

As an experienced knitter, crocheter, weaver and general crafter, I would have no interest in it, but I can see where this might be fun for kids or perhaps a person who doesn't know how to knit but wants to make something that looks knitted.

How many loops to you need to count to start it off

How many skeins do I need for an adult blanket?

All I can say is,” WOW.”

Thank you, I am currently making a blanket for my niece

This is amazing for my 8 year old daghter, she uses the frase pull the jacket over the loop, no clues were she got it from.

What size is the final square?

I just got this to try it out purchased on amazon came with three but I’m not sure if I want to order more....so would this be enough to make a throw pillow? 3.5oz/100g

It already has all the loops on it when you buy it. All you do it pull them through each other.

As I read through these comments looking for someone who might be having the same issue as me (ends of my scarf curling in) I was amazed at how many unnecessary, rude, and absolutely snobby comments were posted. And all of this was pre covid. I can only imagine what these people would say now. My goodness. I thought we (yarnies) were better than this.

WHY DO SO MANY PEOPLE DONT PRACTICE

My yarn seems fuzzy and not like yours

Seriously, this is the best video a company like Lion Brand Yarns can afford to make??? I can't believe you posted something so unprofessional. I am not a knitter or a crocheter and know nothing about working with yarn. Still in the same boat after watching this video!

Why has everyone and their mother come out with this? I think it's more tedious than those ridiculous sock looms. Just having to cut the loops off at the end is an total waste.

I was wondering who would want this. Maybe a knitter or crocheted with arthritis who can no longer do what they love?

No thank you

I don't think this yarn will be around long. Probably not cost effective nor very efficient in making a project even for kids.

I have an inoperable brain tumor and am slowly losing my ability to control my fingers well and it won't be long before I can't crochet at all so this could be helpful when the time comes that I still want to make something but can't. I'll stick to my hooks as long as I possibly can though :)

Made of my least favorite material, looks tedious and would get old after five minutes, takes a million skeins to make anything, costs a lot for even one skein. It's definitely novelty yarn, the kind of thing someone who doesn't know better will buy, get tired of quickly, and never finish before it ends up in the back of a closet somewhere. I'm having trouble thinking of what I would even want to make with this.

Normally, I find the yarn arts community supportive and encouraging; usually finding an UPside for many new techniques or materials. So much so, that my terribly cynical side usually gets a little irritated with all the "positivity". Nice to know snarkiness still lives on in the yarn arts community, as demonstrated by the incredibly snobbish comments posted here. Just because it doesn't crank your tractor doesn't mean it has no worth or usefulness.

Yup. Now we have self-knitting yarn...because knitting is so unbelievably hard that, in colonial America, small children could learn to do it. But I guess if its any harder than touching a SCREEN today, you just can't do it. If it requires READING, you can't do it. If it requires watching a VIDEO and using TOOLS at the same time, you can't do it. Sorry about the rant, but whatever became of pride in achieving something difficult?

Or just MAYBE if you have a very young granddaughter who loves to craft with her Mom Mom, this could be a nice way to do so. My granddaughter, who is 4, pretends to crochet with my hooks. She's much too young to understand, but I will teach her when she is a tad older. In the meantime, I could see her being able to do this with a little help and it would be a basis for learning more later. I think she would be thrilled to complete a project like a pillow or something and know that she created it. You have to think outside the box a bit and realize that not every product is for you or others like you.

These loops are for amateurs and kids. Those of us that can crochet or knit won't waste our time with this silly product nor waste the money on it. But it can be starting point for anyone. eventually, they may want to do bigger projects and will pick up the hook or needle. Or they may not - their choice.
